Request parameters

The following table describes the parameters for modifying the recurring payment details for a card.

key mandatory	`varchar` This parameter is the unique Merchant Key provided by PayU for your merchant account.	Your Test Key

If a transaction using a particular transaction ID has already been successful at PayU, the usage of the same Transaction ID again would fail. Hence, you must post us a unique transaction ID for every new transaction. `Character limit`: 25 Note: Ensure that the transaction ID sent to us has not been successful earlier. In case of this duplication, the customer would get an error of ‘duplicate Order ID.’	fd3e847h2

For network tokens

This is applicable for the following scenarios:

Merchant has the card token, TAVV(Cryptogram), and the last four digits of the card

TAVV is a token authentication verification value given by schemes or interchange. Also, known as cryptogram.

Additional notes:

The last 4 digits of cards is mandatory for all transactions.

Some payment gateways require the Token Requester ID (trid) and Token Reference Number (tokenRefNo) to be passed for processing the transaction. Not passing these values will restrict the number of payment gateways available for processing the transaction.
